The possibilities of data acquisition, documentation of archaeological information grow simultaneously with the development of modern technology.
This challenge is held in mind in relation to the... More > newly developed method of analysing three-dimensional, georeferenced, archaeological data, which is introduced in this paper. The approach of reconstructing three-dimensional objects - originally physically, today digitally, as models of the real world is not new. With the acknowledgement of GIS as not just a tool, but a science, the potential of it has gone far beyond these former uses and offers a lot more of analytical possibilities.
This paper shows the long and stony road from paper-based legacy data to a volumetric, three-dimensional voxel-based model of archaeological stratigraphy in a georeferenced space. This report addresses further issues of effort and benefit of 3D models, its potentials and disadvantages.< Less

The Advisory Council on Underwater Archaeology (ACUA), the Society for Historical Archaeology (SHA), and The PAST Foundation are pleased to present the 2012 ACUA Underwater Archaeology Proceedings... More > from the 45th Annual on Conference on Historical and Underwater Archaeology held in Baltimore, Maryland, USA.
The Underwater Archaeology Proceedings present current research conducted by academics, avocationals, students, and resource managers. All of the papers published in this volume were originally presented as talks in organized conference sessions and are the edited print versions of the research presented. They cover a broad range of topics related to underwater and nautical archaeology, from discussions of specific ship types and the results of scientific studies to broad-based data management tools.< Less

More > on its hard disk. Using a small custom script, for the entire month of June 2011 Martin Howse registered each chunk of data which had changed within the file system from the previous day's image. Excluding binary data, one day's sedimentation has been published in this book, a novel of data archaeology in progress tracking the overt and the covert, merging the legal and illegal, personal and administrative, source code and frozen systematics.
Martin Howse (London 1969 - www.1010.co.uk) is a programmer, writer, performer and explorer. He is a co-founder of micro-research, a mobile platform for psychogeophysical research with ongoing projects in Berlin, London, Suffolk and Peenemuende. Over the last ten years he has workshopped, performed, lectured and exhibited worldwide.< Less
